Pumas UNAM team news and form: Solid starters for Pumas
The manager’s only issue this week is finding someone to replace Michell Rodriguez. However, seeing as the latter has a backup status for Pumas UNAM already, it shouldn’t be too difficult for the coach to find the right man on the wing.
Predicted lineup: Padilla (GK), Rivas, Natan, Monroy, Galindo, Bennevendo, Reyes, Trigos, Quispe, Lopez & Funes

Player to watch: Oussama Idrissi
Left winger Oussama Idrissi is Rondon’s key partner in Pachuca’s attack. Since the current Liga MX campaign began, Idrissi has managed to score two goals whilst supplying teammates with three assists. We believe he has the right stuff to aid our Pachuca vs Pumas UNAM predictions.
Second player to watch: Guillermo Martinez
Guillermo Martinez is quickly catching up to Cesar Huerta in Pumas UNAM’s internal goalscoring chase. Seeing as the latter is no longer part of the club, it shouldn’t be too hard for Martinez to become Pumas’ top finisher.
